description: "Luís Vinícius de Menezes, more famously known as Vinício is a former professional football player, who played as a centre forward. Although he is a Brazilian, Vinício played his entire career in Italy, and because of this, he was excluded from the Brazil national side, in a similar manner to José Altafini; unlike Altafini, however, Vinício chose not to play for the Italy national side. Following his professional footballing career, he later became a manager, who became known for introducing tactics based on Dutch total football in Italy."
